hai chand jalwa-fagan auj par sitara hai
bahaar-e-sabza-e-parcham se aashkara hai

hamin ne khun se sincha hai barha apne
ye gul hamare hain ye gulsitan hamara hai

bulandiyon se pahunchne lage salam niyaz
ada-e-naz se pasti ne sar ubhaara hai

utho utho ki jigar shaq hua andheron ka
ufuq se subh ki tahrir aashkara hai

chalo chalo ki rah-e-irtiqa hai chashm-ba-rah
badho badho ki surayya pe haq tumhaara hai

nasib-e-qaum mein kya rah gai kami baqi
zamin sabz hai ek chand hai sitara hai

utar ke aa gaya jaise zamin pe bagh-e-iram
rawish-rawish ko bahaaron ne yun sanwara hai

jo arz-e-pak pe hai rang-o-nur ki barish
ye malik-e-do-jahan ka hasin ishaara hai

kisi ko rahat-o-taskin-e-dil mile jis se
'siraj' aisi aziyyat hamein gawara hai
